Scope and Content Cromarty was a seaport, ferry port and medieval burgh, dating back to at least the 13th-C. To the right of the Harbour, the buildings forming three sides of a square were a hemp works and rope walk. At upper centre is the cemetery and 18th-C Gaelic Chapel known as The Paye. The Fishertown is by the shore in upper left sector of image. The ancient church dedicated to St Moluag stood near upper left edge of image, but was overwhelmed by the sea. At top left edge Cromarty House is visible, an 18th-C mansion built for the Urquhart lairds of Cromarty, replacing their nearby castle, which was demolished. Title and Scope & Content contributed by North of Scotland Archaeological Society (2021).
